Symptoms

The National Breast Screening Programme is for well women and is not aimed at women who already have symptoms.

A mammogram will pick up most, but not all, breast cancers. If you have a breast symptom or are concerned about your breasts, you should contact your GP practice without delay. He or she will decide whether you need any tests or investigations.

If you would like more information about breast symptoms you may find it helpful to visit the Breast Cancer Care website (www.breastcancercare.co.uk)
